I am sure most of you have seen this already on the Attenborough documentary but for those that haven't - it's amazing and for those that have it's well worth another look!!

wow thankyou for that i missed it on tv and as a parrot owner was really interested that is absolutely incredible i have an african grey one of the cleverest mimics there are but that lyre bird is something else
its amazing. i have seen it a few times but its still amazing. i heard someone say that birds have two sets of vocal chords which must help.
brilliant film clip, thank goodness they don't live around here, barking dogs, screaming kids, lawnmowers, house alarms, I could go on ;D ;D
Don't know how I missed this. Fantastic, thanks for the link.

Fabulous! I'm just a bit worried about how he's going to attract a lady lyre bird though. She could get confused by all that other stuff. ;)
Never mind the amazing vocals, I'd love those feathers on a hat. ;D
who'd you be trying to attract though, Maggie ? ;D
Another liar Lyre ;D
EMMY...Thanks for sharing this.....Wow...Wonderful clip, not seen this before.
